Mischievous Muscovy

After morning tea break, Ali, Joss and Sophie were walking through the front quad to be greeted by the sight of three mischievous Muscovy walking on the lawn, ducks and people are not allowed on the quad lawn. The ducks spotted them and quickly waddled over to them thinking they would be warmly welcomed. Not so, before they were able to make any messy deposits on the lawn, they were carefully ushered off the lawn and through the arch, much to the amusement of onlookers gathered on the top terrace.

Not content with their adventure on to the quad lawn, within the hour, the three Muscovy had regrouped and joined the other three to make an attempt to breach the defences to the Provost's garden. Spotted by Sophie and Ali as the ducks made their way across the bridge to the open gate, it was shut, just in time, to scupper another adventure, mean gardeners!
